Love What You Do - Rich Razzleberry

Hello, Crafters.

I've been itching to use this design from the Share What You 
Love Designer Series Paper (DSP)! I love the Rich Razzleberry 
and Crumb Cake colour combo! I used the  triple flower stem as
my image to partner this DSP, because the image is a very 
unfussy line art image.
  I debated whether to colour the flower heads using the small background stamp, but I decided to use my Rich Razzlebery Marker Pen to colour them. Once I'd painted them I stamped over with the whole image using the large background stamp, using Crumb Cake Ink stamped off once.

 I also decided to stamp the flowers twice and then I fussy cut them, 
so I could adhere them on top of the original flowers using 
Dimensionals. The reason I thought about this was that I wondered if 
stamping all over with the background stamp with stamped off Crumb 
Cake Ink, might distort the colour of the original flowers in the image. 
As it happened, I needn't have been concerned as the Crumb 
Cake was  so light and my colouring with the Marker Pen was so
 rich, there  was no discernable affect. I chose the sentiment from the
 Beautiful Bouquet Stamp Set because it's so small; I didn't want a 
sentiment that would over power the image. 

I haven't decorated the inside of the card, but I'll finish 
that off today. I added a medium-sized Basic Rhinestone at the
 base of each flower, and a line of three under the sentiment. 
I'm finding that the Suite that's on Early Release this year, is much 
easier to work with than last year's Eastern Palace which I found
 quite a challenge. I'll really loving this Share What You Love Suite
 because I think it's so very versatile! I hope you're enjoying it too! 
Untill tomorrow, happy crafting. 
 
JanB.

    1. Hi, Geraldine. This year's early release is so much easier to promote than last year's i.e. Eastern Palace. There's just so much that can be done with Share What You Love! ☺ Happy crafting, JanB.

    1. Hi, Donata. It's not a technique I do, but I imagine a velvet ribbon would look stunning. If you make one please share it in my Facebook Group called Happy crafting. I'd love to see them. ☺ Happy crafting, JanB.
